A NEIGHBOUR from hell is facing eviction - for the second time.

Becky Stryker, aged 21, was thrown out of her two-bedroomed home in The Pungle, Westhoughton, on Tuesday after residents claimed she made their lives a misery.

Now the company that manages the estate, Contour Homes Limited, has applied for a new court hearing after being inundated with claims that Miss Stryker had moved into a friend's house around the corner.

A spokesman said: "We have received reports that the tenant has moved into another property on the Pungle Estate.

"We are carrying out inquiries to find out if that is the case.

"We have the authority to evict the tenant from the second house, and hope to raise the matter in court next week."

During the 18 months she lived in The Pungle, numerous complaints were made to Contact and the police about intimidation, noise, the number of visitors at all hours of the day and night.

A five-month court battle culminated in her eviction earlier this week.

A district judge at Bolton County Court granted the housing association's request for her tenancy to be terminated and she was served with a notice to quit.

Miss Stryker packed up her belongings watched by police, who attended to make sure there was no trouble.

She was the second person to be evicted from the troubled estate.

Contour Housing says it is determined to tackle the anti social behaviour which has blighted The Pungle estate for months and has adopted a "zero tolerance" policy.

Other tenants have been warned that they too could be evicted if problems continue.

Cathy Gilfillan, chairman of the Pungle Residents Association, said: "We are determined to clean up this area. The residents association group was formed as part of Contour Homes' efforts to transform the estate.

"We fully support the action of the housing association.

"If you are evicted from one property, you should not be able to move into another. It seems to be a loophole in the justice system.

"These are lovely modern houses with huge gardens and we want it to be a happy estate for families to live.

"We are determined that the minority will not spoil it for the majority."
